Re: FC5: gnome-pilot AND pilot-link broken (worse than FC4!)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a 3-year-old Treo 90 (only a PDA, not a phone) that, at least
after I got the udev rules straightened out, worked fine with FC 4.
(At least with jpilot/pilot-link; I've never used gnome-pilot.)
It doesn't work with FC 5, and exposes a kernel bug.

On a fully-updated fresh install of FC 5, when I plug in the Treo USB
cable and press the sync button, I get the following in
/var/log/messages:

--------------------------------------------------

I am, of course, unable to sync.  The Treo just sits there, waiting
for the sync.  When I try to sync with pilot-xfer or jpilot, I get a
complaint that buffer overflow was detected in the application and
pilot-xfer or jpilot is killed.  When I unplug the cable or reset the
Treo, I get a kernel bug:

etc.

The system freezes until after the 2 minutes of "Continuing in ...",
and after the freeze at least some USB stuff doesn't work (e.g., I
can't mount a USB memory key).

I've filed a bug report on this
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=186712), but
I'd certainly appreciate any suggestions for workarounds anyone might
have in the meantime.

Thanks,

  George
